Gender recognition demo v2014

Modesto Castrilln-Santana 
SIANI, Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain.

The folder contains the following executables:

- GenderDemo2014_fullres Execution at full resolution of the available webcam.
- GenderDemo2014_halfres Execution at half resolution of the webcam, useful for machines with less computational power.

The interaction with the application is rather basic, using the following keys

- Esc to finish the execution
- s to save the last captured image
- p to save the last processed image (with gender information drwan if available)
- any other key will change the debug option, if active presents the classifiers scores.

The demo is based on the experiences acquired in the papers:

- "Gender Recognition based on Classifier Ensemble considering the
Face and its Local Context" M. Castrilln Santana, J. Lorenzo Navarro, E. Ramn Balmaseda.
(under review)

- "Improving Gender classification in the wild" M. Castrilln Santana, J. Lorenzo Navarro, E. Ramn Balmaseda.
Congreso Iberoamericano de Reconocimiento de Patrones (CIARP13)

The demo also requires the use of a face detector, so we have used "ENCARA2: Real-time 
Detection of Multiple Faces at Different Resolutions in Video Streams". M. Castrilln, O. Dniz, C. Guerra, M. Hernndez.
Journal of Visual Communication and Image Representation, 2007.

Two txt files describe the location of the data needed by the face detector (ENCARAdataconfig.txt) and the 
gender recognizer (ClassifierLocation.txt).
